  • I am absolutely a new fan of this little (south)westside gem. We went for a late lunch for my birthday a couple of weeks ago. The decor and atmosphere are pretty simple and low key but fit the location of the restaurant. No complaints from me for a nice lunch spot. I immediately grabbed the cocktail menu (it was my birthday so I was getting a good drink!). Our waiter noticed right away and suggested the Milan Mule. If I remember correctly, it was vodka, simple syrup, basil, and lime. Very good. Another member of our party wanted a beer and the waiter suggested an Italian amber which I LOVED. We wanted to share some olives but were not sure what to order. I really like olives but I'm not necessarily a connoisseur and asked the waiter for a suggestion. I actually cannot remember which variety we ended up with but they were good and we enjoyed gobbling them up with our drinks. Our main dishes were the carbonara, the bucatini with lamb, and strozzapreti. ALL were very good. We ordered the entree sized portions and took half of everything home. Next time, I would probably order the appetizer portion if I didn't want to eat it again the next day. I had the carbonara and really enjoyed it. Having the poached egg on top and breaking upon being served made it taste even better. I did have the waiter add a little bit more cracked pepper but otherwise the flavors were quite good. I reluctantly tried the bucatini because I'm not a fan of lamb at all. I think I liked it just as well as my carbonara. The fresh mint in the dish made it taste so much better than any other lamb dish I've tried. The lamb was roasted quite well and having it kind of shredded in the dish was just right. I would never order a lamb dish when out but when I return to DC Pasta Co. I will order this dish. The strozzapreti was delicious! It tasted fresh and...perfect for a vegetable pasta dish. All three of the entrees reminded me of the fresh, rustic meals I had when visiting Italy (and Southern France). We were going to skip dessert but the person who made the reservations (online) made a note that it was a birthday celebration so they brought out a chocolate mousse type dessert that was good. I'm not a fan of mousse but this was still good. And a very nice surprise. The service was great!! Our waiter was funny and engaging, made great suggestions, and didn't hover. This exactly what I like when dining out. All in all a great meal. I didn't want to fuss with going to Tremont and either trying to find a parking spot or using valet but I really wanted a good pasta dish for my birthday meal. The DC Pasta Co. was a great place to get a great meal without having to go to Tremont or downtown (even though I love both places!!)
